238 Delivering Tea
As Kong Rui sipped her tea, she listened to the discussions of the people around her. From ti to ti, she would glance at the guests at the table.
Soone at the neighboring table seed to realize these people’s identities and he lowered his voice as he said to his companion, “They seem to be from the northernmost tribe.”
“It’s said that those people are good at controlling beasts. Spirit beasts that our empire can’t control are just ordinary beasts to them. I heard that their capital is frozen all year round, and those people are still living a life of eating raw at and drinking blood. Moreover, their race is very strange. Won have a higher status than n! I think…” As the person spoke, he glanced at those people. “Those people are most likely from there! ”
That person spoke very seriously. so he was very convincing.
Kong Rui frowned slightly, but she doubted that person’s judgnt.
She had read about the tribal people in the extre north. Although there was a tradition of won being superior to n, their clothes seed to be a little different from those of the people in front of her.
In addition, the book also recorded that the tribes and people in the extre north had a feud with the other sects and clans in the five continents. It was even more impossible for them to bring a disciple in the attire of the Profound Heaven Sect with them.
Kong Rui was even more curious about the identities of these people, but she was even more curious about why these foreigners were here at this ti.
She wasn’t a patriotic person. She just didn’t like people coming all the way here to obstruct her plans!
“Did you notice? That woman has a strange sll on her,” said a greasy-looking man at the table on the other side of Kong Rui.
Kong Rui imdiately pricked up her ears to listen to see what the other party had to say.
“What sll? It’s just the stench of animal skin! Could it be that you want to say it’s the sll of blood?” A friend beside him looked indifferent.
The man waved his hand and said in disdain, “You guys don’t understand these things! That woman has the sll of a special spice from High Heaven Pavilion. That sll is really…” As the man spoke, he even revealed an intoxicated expression.
His friend beside him sneered. “You even know the sll of High Heaven Pavilion’s special spices? Are you…”
The greasy man slapped his friend’s hand away and scolded, “Can’t I have a few good besties?”
“It just so happens that I have so of those spices here. Co and sll them. Is this the sll?!” As he spoke, he took out a small incense box from the small bag he carried with him.
Everyone at the sa table leaned over to sll it. Then, they frowned slightly and soone said, “It seems to be the sa sll!”
“When they passed by, I felt that they slled different from the girls in the Imperial Capital. So it was this sll!”
Kong Rui subconsciously sniffed towards the direction of the table, but she didn’t sll anything. Instead, she choked on the greasy-haired man’s strong sll of costics and coughed a few tis.
Her cough seed to alarm the people at the animal fur woman’s table.
When the woman in animal skin looked up at Kong Rui and saw that she seed to have really choked on sothing, only then did she retract her gaze and continue listening to the gray-robed old man.
Kong Rui took a while to calm down before picking up her teacup again and taking a sip.
“Eh, it’s cold already.” She put down the teacup and called the waiter over.
The waiter went to Kong Rui’s side with a frightened expression. “Miss, what instructions do you have?”
Kong Rui sized up the waiter before saying with a smile, “Today’s tea is not bad. Pack so for and send it to Fragrant Garden in the evening.”
“Fragrant Garden?” The waiter couldn’t help but call out, but he quickly suppressed his surprise.
